Investing in Rochester, NY Buy and Hold Difficulties
Good Afternoon BiggerPockets Community,
Happy New Year! I am new to real estate investing, I have been diligently analyzing deals in Rochester, NY and I am having difficulty finding any deals that the "math works". High property/school taxes in A and B neighborhoods increase the monthly expenses above and beyond any positive cashflow. Even with a high initial equity it appears to me that its a bad investment. Here is an example that I hope you all might comment on and give me some feedback.
4 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath. 1876 sqft.

Maybe I am putting in incorrect figures, but any help or comments would be very appreciated.
Thank you all for your time and effort.
Best Regards,
Shane
